    I've seen the photos of the lines of people "climbing" to the top. And they completely changed my opinion on it as adventurous.

        I believe a Sherpa recently did all the peaks solo as a registered climber all in record time. So he is the registered number one guy for all the peaks. Where as before it was a bunch of rich people he was basically carrying up to the peak

          Yeah it’s called 14 peaks, it’s really good. It’s on Netflix. Alpinism is super cool and a lot of people in the climbing community aren’t fans of the commercialization of Everest.
